An enjoyable hike through stunning natural landscapes

5.00This hike was the absolute highlight of our trip. The landscapes were breathtaking and the entire day was very well organized. What made the experience even more special was our guide, Vojta. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about the region. The day was filled with incredible sights, funny jokes, and interesting stories about the history, geology, and local culture, which made the places we visited even more meaningful. Vojta did a fantastic job managing the tour, keeping a comfortable pace, and making sure everyone had a great experience. The scenery on both the Czech and German sides of the park was stunning, with dramatic rock formations, beautiful nature, and exceptional viewpoints. A big thank you to Vojta for making this such a memorable day. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Prague who enjoys hiking and wants to experience some of the most beautiful natural landscapes in the region.
Amazing Day with Vojta!

5.00Our guide, Vojta was simply amazing! His love of nature, coupled with his vast knowledge of the area (both the Germany and the Czecha side) was vast. This trip included a lovely lunch and lots of delightful conversation. A beautiful day to be in a gorgeous part of the world. Many sincere thanks. Driving skills A+++.

5.00The tour is absolutely amazing and we were blessed to have gone on a day when the grounds were blanketed in snow. It was beautiful and our guide was fabulous. I didn't feel strange being alone amongst other couples.
Nice experience

5.00Fun experience. Awesome guide who was friendly. If going in the winter bring warm clothes, gloves and hat. Looks beautiful in the winter.
My guide was Ondrej Maly....

5.00My guide was Ondrej Maly. He is very knowledgeable about the history of the places that i was visiting. The journey to Saxon is like entering another world. The trees were covered with ice but not from snow. It was from water condensation that were frozen due to low temperature. The walk in the Saxon was very fascinating for me especially entering the paths in between the rock formation. The lunch was awesome although I opted for vegan menu. I was served mushrooms deep fried with thin batter and boiled potatoes mixed with butter. Desert was pancake with raspberry filling, sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon. Next stop was the Bastei Bridge. The views from the platforms were amazing. Ondrej was very entertaining with quizzes and facts about the locations. 10 stars for Ondrej!
Great outdoors (with a misleading title/description!)

4.00While the organization, communication/coordination, etc. leading up to the trip was quite well managed, the description can be a bit misleading, as neither Pravicka Gate nor boat ride was part of the tour! Lunch was also offered as an afterthought, especially if you're after veg/vegan options (which are a bit slim in most restaurants en route). However, I really enjoyed my conversations with Ondřej and his enthusiasm through the day was well appreciated :)
Unprofessional!

1.00Terrible. Unprofessional! The Viator map yielded a location; I waited, they never answered me either by mail or WhatsApp or answered the Viator agents. They don't want to give me my refund back and I think it's unfair. Since I have the tests where I was at the meeting point I was assigned and I never had the experience!
Amazing!

5.00Vojta was by far the friendliest, most knowledgeable and funniest guide. He took us to the best spots, acted as our photographer, and even joined us for a snowball fight. We can’t reccomend him or his tour enough! It was definitely our favourite day in Prague!
